Outline of Final Research Achievements

After discussing a preliminary list of 897 problems about case-marking particles, adverbial particles, conjunctive particles, and conjunctions with five collaborators, I deleted 35 and added 26 new problems. In addition, I revised 79 problems slightly, changed 11 answers, changed how to ask 113 problems ("multiple answers allowed", "choose only one", and "choose two"), and substantially modified 42. I did not change the remaining 617.
Based on the results of the tests with the hearing-impaired students of National University Corporation Tsukuba University of Technology, I divided problems into easy and difficult categories. The problems are now accessible by anyone on the internet.
